iOS app 5.0
Brand new iOS app. Rewritten from scratch with native technology. Expect smooth, native performance, low battery usage and tighter intergration with iOS.
Tech details
Previously our app have been made with React Native. It's a hybrid web technology that allowed javascript developers build mobile apps. But due to hybrid nature we encountered many limitations like poor performance, inability to create native feature like Widgets, Shortcuts integration and so on, and so on.
I used Swift and SwiftUI to create this brand new app. There high chance I will be able to create a native macOS app in near future. No widgets and shortcuts in this realease yet. But expect them in future updates.
